I lust for height as in NBA height. I realize my pain in life will never go away as I can never buy height. Even if I won 100 million in the lottery I would still feel like crap knowing it will only buy materials things and not peace in your heart. I actually think more material things means more stress. But thats another matter.
Would you rather be tall than worth 50 million?

I'm 6'6. I have many, many inconveniences in life.
1. I can't drive small sized cars (More $$$)
2. All shirts, jackets, pants, have to be custom made or oversized and tailored. (More $$$ and time). I can't stress HOW MUCH TIME this takes to dress properly and well for being tall.
3. All furnitures have to be custom or remodeled (More $$$ and time).
4. I am top heavy and therefore many sports become a struggle (Horseback riding, snow mobiling, skiing, skating, etc)
5. I have significant compatibility issues with shorter partners, to the point where dating girls shorter than 5'6 is generally sexually uncomfortable.
6. Every single conversation starts with "do you play basketball?" or "what did you eat growing up?".
7. Back problems, leg problems, knee problems.

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near NBA height. But 50 million dollars in my bank account would be great.
Ideally 6 feet 2 to 6 3. Its that green envy that burns. I don't think therapy will ever solve this.
Things I avoid doing as a vertically challenged human.
1. got to the mall
2. wear a suit
3. wear shorts in summer
4. ask women out.
5. go to sport events
I won't say how tall I am, lets just say I can flat foot a Kawasaki Ninja 400 and ride GSXR600S, CBR600RR, Ninja 1000s no issues but can't flatfloot the bigger bikes.
I rather have tall person issues.

Honda old buddy, I said somewhere before in this idiotic forum for one to be completely happy
one must be unconditionally happy within ones own skin. It's simple bro, you just gotta let go of
what is not. Look in the mirror, you are not 6'6" nor will you ever be. So.......... just let it go man
and be yourself.
After all we are merely the sum of our parts and will never be more than that.
As the years go on though, we start to loose some parts. :lol:

Well, here is a subject I know a lot about. I am definitely shorter than average and shorter than many women. I can't say it bothers me, or holds me back, in any way and it certainly doesn't stop me from approaching a desirable lady. Sure, I get the occasional brush off, but less than one might expect. I think personality and approach, count for more than height in such situations.
Bad Santa said it best and I quote. Wish in one hand and shit in the other,see which one fills up first. Don't waste time on wishing for things that aren't ever going to happen. Live in the now my friend.
I guess I wouldn't mind being a little taller but I would still want to stay under 6 foot. At 5'7" and 180lbs I have a great physique. For me to be 6 foot and keep the same build I would have to weigh in around 230. That's a lot to carry around and gets tough on joints, cardio, etc..
I'm quite happy with 5'7" considering I went into high school at 4'11", one of the smallest guys around.
Not sure what you feel more height would give you in life.

If you're less than 5ft7, make sure you always get the short size when you're buying a suit. Suits are labelled by their chest size (36, 40, etc) but also by the wearers height - short, regular, long (S, R, L).
But give me the $50 million anytime.

I'm at a loss; Who is Amanda Kerr? Can't even find her doing a google search. Do you mean Miranda? If so, I have to say not very attractive. Definitely average, maybe slightly above average but nothing beyond that.
We are who we are. We grow into ourselves and blossom from there.
Height, weight, looks- whatever. Attitude counts for a lot. Financial success is separate.
Be happy about yourself.
Maybe easy for me to say- 6' 4"- 225lbs on average for most of my adult life (a 'tad' bit more right now!). Multi-sport, athletic and 'decent' looking. Great hair. Never had any issues attracting women, even as a runt or a gangly foal. Sensitivity counts too.
I was a shrimp until high school- then a bean pole through grad. I was full height height and 170 lbs as a bouncer at 19. I wasn't taken seriously and lacked a bit of confidence. This bar environment forced me to became an A-dog or slink away.
I didn't slink. Although there were times that I had to step up knowing the outcome wouldn't be favourable.
Went on and worked construction days, began a healthier lifestyle and filled out to 205 around 23 or so. Packed a few more on as I matured. Never looked back since.
So what's the deal? 50 million and 5'6"? 5'4"? 5' F-A or less? I dunno- the money is great, but I doubt it.
I'm generally happy with myself.
And I prefer being taller than average.
The view from up here is quite clear.
And as noted earlier, I don't equate financial security with sacrificing my 'size'.
Now, trading in my height for an adult-sized cock- that's an entirely different scenario!
